How to Apply

If you have a biometric passport or a biometric residence permit you can use an Android phone (or tablet) with NFC to start the application using the app called EU Exit: ID Document Check which can be downloaded from Google Play store.

If you don't have a biometric passport or residence permit you will need to send your documents to the Home Office by post. To begin your application and find the address details, start your application online at gov.uk https://apply-for-eu-settled-status.homeoffice.gov.uk/

Calls usually cost up to 40p a minute from mobiles and up to 10p a minute from landlines. It should be free if you have a contract that includes calls to landlines - check with your supplier if you’re not sure.
